Brescia railway station
Brescia, Italy
Brescia railway station (IATA: BRZ) (Stazione di Brescia) is the main station serving the city and comune of Brescia, in the region of Lombardy, northern Italy. The station is situated in central Brescia, on the south-western edge of the historic town centre. It is used by about 60,000 passengers per day and about 20 million passengers per year. The station, opened in 1854, is located on the Milan-Venice railway and is a terminus of three branch lines: Valcamonica Railway to Edolo, Bergamo–Brescia railway and Brescia–Piadena/Cremona railway which branches off towards southeast of the station. Connection to the Milan-Venice high-speed railway (Milan-Verona section) entered operation on 11 December 2016. Construction of the section between Brescia and Verona is still underway. Upon completing the entire section, however, some trains might bypass Brescia to run non-stop between Milan and Verona. The station is currently managed by Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI). The commercial area of the passenger building, however, is managed by Centostazioni. These companies are full subsidiaries of Ferrovie dello Stato (FS), Italy's state-owned rail company. Train services are operated by Trenitalia, Trenord and NTV-Italo.
